Welcome to the show, Jason.
Hi, Jason.
Hey, how's it going?
Are we talking actual goldfish or different types of fish?
No, they're all goldfish.
Why would you want 10 of the same fish?
Why 10?
Do you not have 10?
That's embarrassing, because I do.
You have 10 goldfish just so you can say that, don't you?
I have no idea why I have 10 goldfish, but I, yeah.
Do they all have names?
Yep.
Can you name them?
Parsley, jelly, powerade, woodblock.
They've got really stupid names.
They're just kind of written beside the goldfish bowl.
Woodblock.
Yeah, well, Chris, what do you mean?
The goldfish bowl, whatever you want, mate. I like powerade. Is it the red one? Power beside the goldfish bowl. Wood block. Yeah, well, Chris, pretty much the goldfish bowl, whatever you want.
I like Powerade.

Powerade, the goldfish.
Yeah.
They're all actually solid gold.

Awesome. Thanks a lot.
Get you some cash as well.
Congrats.
It's all thanks to the tool shed,

Bree and Clint.
Time to line them up in Sibling Showdown.
Yay!
Brother, brother, brother. Bree and up in Sibling Showdown. Yay! Brother, brother, brother.
Bree and Clint's Sibling Showdown.
The game is simple, we believe, by asking a couple of questions,
pointed questions, that we can tell where you are in the sibling line-up.
Are you the eldest, the middle or the youngest?
The theory is there's tell-tale signs.
There's things about you, there's things about the way you were raised,
there's things about the way you think and behave
that tell us where you sit in the pecking order in your family.
That's what we believe.
Look.
The only rule of sibling showdown?
No only children allowed.
Yeah, you're not allowed to play, unfortunately,
because it's too hard.
You got everything else except for siblings.
Oh, rough.
They know.
Do you reckon most only children...
Nah, only children think they're superior, don't they?
Nah, only children, most of them long for another sibling, I believe.
I reckon, yeah.
I reckon they could handle another sibling.
They're too used to getting everything.
Chris is going to play Sibling Showdown.
Hi, Chris.
Hi, Chris.
Hey, team, how are we?
We're good, thank you.
Now, Chris, we're going to ask you a couple of questions
and then we're going to guess where you are in the line-up, okay?
Sounds good.
I'll go first, Chris.
When your family had like a roast, like a roast chicken,
like a Sunday roast,
what part of the chicken did you get on your plate?
Oh, good question.
Drumstick.
Drumstick.
Cool, got it.
Thank you.
All right, Chris, my question for you.
Let's say, hypothetically, your family would go on a family holiday altogether.
Or think back to a time where you've been on a family holiday.
Yeah.
Your parents take the best room, the primary room.
What room do you get?
I get the second one.
The second best.
The second best, The second best.
Okay.
It's easy.
He's the eldest.
The chicken drumstick thing
throws me off a little bit.
But he might like
the chicken drumstick.
Yeah, it's pretty good
for a kid,
the chicken drumstick too,
but I'm thinking eldest boy
probably gets the other breast.
I reckon he's eldest.
For sure.
He gets the second best room.
Chris, you the eldest child?
I'm the middle,
but the favourite. Oh! Chris, you the eldest child? I'm the middle, but the favourite.
Oh!
God, that's thrown up!
You're kidding!
I should have gone with my gut on the chicken drumstick thing.
The chicken drumstick is the middle child piece of chicken.
It is.
Mate, Chris.
Chris.
It's a telltale sign.
How are you the middle child and you're getting the second best room?
I had to sleep in a stairwell one time.
Yeah, way more charisma than my older sister.
You rizzed your way into the room.
Me too.
All right, thanks, Chris.
Bella's here.
Hi, Bella.
Hi, Bella.
Hi.
Hi.
Bella, how old are you?
I'm 12.
12, okay.
Bella, forget birth order.
I want to know where you rank in your family in height order.
Are you the tallest, the middle, or the shortest?
Probably like the second shortest.
Yeah, okay, cool.
Thank you.
Bella, I want to know from you, your school uniforms,
have they always been brand new or mostly secondhand?
Secondhand.
Middle child.
You reckon she's middle or she could be youngest.
She's a middle child.
What was her first answer?
She's the second tallest.
Yeah, but girls grow...
They grow faster, younger.
They grow faster.
She would have had a growth spurt already.
You don't know if she's got an older brother or older sister.
We don't know that.
Middle.
I'll go with you
that she's the middle
but I
my guts say
your guts says what?
Youngest.
But I'll go with you.
We're locking in together.
Bella, you're a middle child.
No, I'm the older.
Oh, we're both wrong.
This game is so much
harder than we thought.
Thanks, Bella. We've got one more chance so much harder than we thought. Thanks, Bella.
We've got one more chance at this.
Hi, Danielle.
Hi, Danielle.
Hi.
This is to save it.
We need to get at least one.
I do need to know how old you are before I ask your question, though.
Not what order you are, just what age you are right now.
27.
27.
Okay, 27.
I've got a good question.
27's a bit young for my question. Go with yours. My question for you, 27. I've got a good question. 27's a bit young for my question.
Go with yours.
My question for you, Danielle.
Out of your siblings,
were you the first one to get a mobile phone?
Yes.
Oh, done deal.
She's the oldest.
27-year-old.
First to get a mobile phone.
She's the oldest.
You don't need my question.
Lock it in. Yeah, she's the oldest. You don't need my question. Lock it in.
Yeah, she's the oldest, yeah.
We got him!
I kind of cheated a little bit, but hey, we needed a win at the end.
That was an obvious one.
My question would have been, Danielle, what order were you born in?
Wait, let me ask Danielle one more question.
Danielle, on a family holiday, would you get the second best room
after your parents? No, I had
to share with my brother. Yeah.
Are you one of two? Yeah.
Yeah, he's the favourite though. Yeah, because
he's got a two bedroom. He's the favourite?
Why do you think he's the favourite?
Because he's the boy
and the baby, so
you know. The youngest. The youngest is
always a favourite.
There you go.
Always.
One from three in Sibling Showdown.
We're down to about 45%. And there was a lot of grey area on that last one as well.
Bree and Clint.
Bree and I need to settle an argument.
That came out of nowhere today, didn't it?
It really came out of nowhere.
Like most arguments do.
Yeah.
It's not based on anything relevant.
Why were we even talking about it? Who knows? I don't know. I think I watched a video. Yeah. It's not based on anything relevant. Why were we even talking about it?
Who knows?
I don't know.
I think I watched a video.
Yeah.
And then I asked the question.
And I had one opinion and you had the other.
The question is, is it Caribbean or Caribbean?
How do you say it?
Yeah.
What's the correct answer?
Because Bree thinks it's Pirates of the Caribbean.
It is Pirates of the Caribbean.
It's not Pirates of the Caribbean. I is Pirates of the Caribbean. It's not Pirates of the Caribbean.
I think you're adding too many syllables to it.
I think you're white person-ing it and it's Pirates of the Caribbean.
I think that Caribbean, Caribbean, I think there is two pronunciations, I think.
I think you're getting confused with a Caribbeaner.
But Pirates of the Caribbean, there's no two ways
to pronounce it.
No.
It's pirates
of the Caribbean.
It's pirates of the Caribbean.
It's pirates,
are you doing it to wind me up?
No, I'm not doing it to wind you up.
Do you genuinely?
Genuinely,
I think it's pirates
of the Caribbean, yeah.
You think it's pirates
of the Caribbean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it's pirates
of the Caribbean.
Okay.
So we've gone and got someone
who is from the Caribbean
or has at least spent
a decent amount of time there.
And that's you, Anna.
Hi, Anna.
Hi.
Hi.
What's your credentials?
Are you Caribbean?
I'm not, and I might be ruining your questionnaire
because I'm Australian like Bree.
Oh.
You know?
You're the perfect sample size.
No, you could be.
No.
Yes, Anna.
100% on your side, Bree.
Yes! Get him! We don't even know, you could be. No. Yes, Anna. 100% on your side, Bree. Yes!
Get him!
We don't even know whether you're qualified.
How much time have you spent in the Caribbean, Anna?
I lived in the Caribbean for 12 months for my husband's work.
Oh, that's a fair amount.
Did you assimilate?
Did you spend time with the locals?
Did you go to local bars and restaurants?
I do.
And Anna, would you say most people would say Caribbean or Caribbean?
To be honest, it really depends where you're from.
But they say the Caribbean, man.
I don't hear anything made to say Caribbean.
Which I think sounds more like Caribbean.
Yeah. It like Caribbean. Yeah.
It's Caribbean.
But when it comes to the movie, there's no grey area.
Pirates of the Caribbean.
I think it is.
But where did you watch that film?
Anna, did you watch it in the Caribbean or did you watch it in Australia?
I'm showing my age here, but probably in Australia.
Yeah, yeah.
Mate, you're wrong.
You're wrong on this one.
It's not.
It's not.
It's just not Caribbean.
I promise it's not.
I've never heard anyone say, oh, I'm going to go down and see the new Pirates of the
Caribbean movie.
Well, you're the most qualified person amongst us, Anna, so I kind of have to take your word for it.
Yeah, please do.
I'm right.
I promise.
Okay.
Yes, Anna.
Thanks for backing me up.
Can I ask another unqualified expert?
Claude, what do you think it is?
Our producer, who's never been there.
Pirates of the Caribbean or Pirates of the Caribbean?
Probably Caribbean, but I would say Caribbean.
Wait, what do you think it is?
Caribbean.
Pirates of the Caribbean. Oh Caribbean. Pirates of the Caribbean.
Oh, definitely Pirates of the Caribbean.
Yes.
100%.
And Ella?
Oh, you've lost me.
Too many words.
Caribbean.
Caribbean.
Everyone's against me.
Sorry.
You don't genuinely think it's Pirates of the Caribbean.
I've also never seen it.
I've also never watched the movie, so.
Oh, why are we even having this argument?
Hey, thanks, Anna.
Thank you, Anna.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers.
Bye.
Thanks, man.
I wish I didn't do that.
Oh, no.
No, that's it.
It's gone to air now.
No, it's out in the airwaves.
Why was it cool when Anna did it, but it was so uncool when I did it?
Because she actually lived there.
Where?
The Caribbean.
Brian Clint.
It's time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio's time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, massive news in the music industry world.
Scooter Braun, what has he done?
He's quit being a manager. Now, just for reference, this is the guy that literally found Justin Bieber on YouTube one night.
Scooter was 25, I think, at the time.
Justin was like 13.
One night, finds this kid in Canada on YouTube,
turns him into one of the biggest stars in the world.
He also represented, of course, Ariana Grande.
But most recently, Scooter Braun, this manager to the stars,
made huge waves and headlines when he was the one that, through a venture
capitalist company, bought all of Taylor Swift's music.
Now, this is, of course, her arch nemesis.
He's the guy that bankrolled the $300 million purchase.
Check this out.
Here's Taylor Swift shredding Scooter Braun.
Lately, there's been a new shift that has affected me personally and that I feel is
a potentially harmful force in our industry
and as your resident loud person I feel the need to bring it up and that is the unregulated world
of private equity coming in and buying up our music as if it is real estate as if it's an app
or a shoe line this just happened to me without my approval, consultation or consent. And let me
just say that the definition of the toxic male privilege in our industry is people saying,
but he's always been nice to me when I'm raising valid concerns about artists and their rights to
own their music. And of course he's nice to you. If you're in this room, you have something he needs.
There's a savage takedown without naming the person at all,
isn't it? She named him without naming him.
And then at the end, she goes on
to say he felt like
to her, it was like
he was buying her and that's how he made
her feel. And then
she's obviously had the last laugh
because she's released the Taylor's version
and totally made
all of the other music that he has purchased
way less relevant.
A bunch of artists have jumped off Scooter Braun recently.
Yeah, it was like a year ago.
It was Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande.
He had Carly Rae Jepsen, Psy, all of them as well.
A lot of people moving away from him.
Yeah, I've told you my Scooter Braun story though.
I think I've told it 10 times.
I've got to tell it one more time.
When I went to Scooter Braun's house. I think I've told it ten times. I've got to tell it one more time. When I went to Scooter
Braun's house to pick up Todrick Hall
and because Scooter has game
nights, Todrick used to be represented by
Scooter. That ended in tears, by the way.
And Todrick was like,
oh, I'm at Scooter Braun's house. Come pick me up. We're going out.
I'm like, sure thing. I pull up out the front,
pool house in Hollywood Hills, out walks Ariana
Grande. That wasn't a surprise because I knew
the rep. Out walks Tom Hanks.
Wow.
Okay.
And I was at the front of Scooter Braun's house.
Tom Hanks walked out.
Ariana Grande walked out and some other people and Todrick.
And he used to rep Demi Lovato as well.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I was just sitting there and Tom Hanks out in the wild.
I reckon it would have been Ariana Grande, Tom Hanks as a charades team.
And I can't wait for that hot Tom Hanks single to drop later on this year.
That's going to be fire.
Bree and Clint, that's the latest live out of Los Angeles with Dean McCarthy.
Bree and Clint.
Jeez, I very nearly ran out of gas in my car on the motorway yesterday.
And I never do that.
Like, I don't ride the lightning as far as going down to the fuel light goes. I generally
try and avoid the fuel light altogether.
Nah, I love the fuel light. Do you?
Yeah, I love the thrill.
Gives me anxiety. I weirdly
pride myself on being a person
who doesn't run out of gas. I think
because I've got family members who have run out of gas
fairly regularly and so
to me, not running out of gas
ever is a sign of like having your shit together.
And if you do run out of gas as an adult,
I'm like, oh, can't you sort your life out?
Sort your life out.
So to almost be that person yesterday
was quite confronting for me.
I almost had to reassess entirely
who I was as a person, you know?
Issue arose on, and this is where it always happens.
If you are driving home, usually from work,
and your fuel light comes on, and you go,
I'll deal with that tomorrow morning.
That's the worst decision you can make.
That is just making today's problem tomorrow's problem.
And you are definitely going to be in more of a rush tomorrow morning
than you are on the way home.
Well, that's what they say.
It's always the way that if you put it off,
the next time that you get in the car, it's going to be way worse. Well, that's what they say. It's always the way that if you put it off, the next time that you get in the car, it's
going to be way worse.
It's going to be way worse.
And you're going to be rushing somewhere and you're going to kick yourself and hate past
Oh, why didn't I just do it last night?
And be like, why didn't I just do it?
Why didn't I just do it?
Anyway, I didn't do it.
And so I got home and then just went about my life as normal.
Then when I got back in the car, I've got one of those cars that when you get in, it
goes bing and it comes up on the screen with like a big fuel icon and it says, you need to
refuel. But I found out that it only does that the first time, the first time that your fuel light
comes on. So if you then go home, turn your car off and then get back in, the next time you start
your car, it's not going to go bing, the fuel light will be on down the bottom of your dash,
but it's not going to give you that big reminder. So if you don't usually look, then you're
not going to think about it. So then I drive to work and then I saw you in the car park
and I'm like, it's like 40 minutes for me to drive to work. It's quite a big drive.
And I saw you in the car park, remember? And I said to you when we were walking from the
car park to work, geez, my fuel light's been on since yesterday. Geez, I'm cutting it a
bit fine. It says I've only my fuel light's been on since yesterday. Jeez, I'm cutting it a bit. Fine.
It says I've only got 15 Ks left on the dash.
And so, yeah, you and I had the conversation,
and I was like, well, you better get it before you drive home tomorrow. And so I planned to get it before I got on the motorway to go home yesterday.
And then as I was at the traffic lights for the on-ramp to get on the motorway,
I looked down and I went, oh, God, I haven't got gas,
and now it says 10 Ks until I run out of gas.
And then as soon as I got on the motorway.
They're liars, though.
Are they, though?
I don't know.
The car's a liar.
Are they?
It's not actually 10 k's to go.
As soon as I get on the motorway, it's down to 5 k's.
Nah, you've got at least 50.
Do you reckon?
I reckon.
But do you want to risk it on something like the motorway in rush hour traffic?
You don't.
I think every car's different
but I reckon at least 50
k's. You reckon there's 50
more k's than what your
thing on your dashboard says? Yeah.
I reckon. So when it says
zero, I reckon there's 50
on top of that. Mine said
five and I turned the heater off.
I turned the radio off. I was like
what can I do to conserve energy in this vehicle just to get me?
Because there is a petrol station at the off-ramp.
If I can just get to the off-ramp, then I can go to the BP.
Or you can push your car to the off-ramp.
No, because the off-ramp's uphill.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, that's bad news.
Yeah.
You also don't want to be that person in rush hour traffic who breaks down.
You'd be the person running on the motorway to the petrol station
and bring your jerry can back.
Yeah, but do they even do that anymore?
I used to work in a petrol station,
and when people would come and ask us for the fuel can,
it was the most annoying thing in the world,
and we're like, you have to leave us a $50 deposit
to be able to borrow the petrol can.
I think you have to buy one.
I think you have to buy a plastic jerry can now.
Oh, you have to buy the whole can? I think so have to buy one. I think you have to buy a plastic jerry can now. Oh, you have to buy the whole can?
I think so. That makes more sense.
Maybe? I don't know. Anyway,
you don't want to find out. Anyway, we got there.
I'm still on five. Felt up.
We're all good. To be honest, I feel like
I always ride the lightning
because I still
have this, like,
I've never been able to really afford
a whole tank of fuel my whole life, like until like, you know,
now probably.
Now that you're an adult.
And so I always had to ride the lightning, like my entire life.
I was like, how much, where can I get to on this amount, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I feel like it's only been, you know, more recently.
Back when $20 would give you a quarter of a tank and you're like,
sweet, I can make that last till Friday.
Exactly.
And sometimes these days you look at it and you're like, fuel's $3 a litre?
Can't afford it.
No judgment.
I know I said it's a sign of not having your shit together, but I want to talk to the people
who have run out of gas before and maybe in the worst place possible.
Like, did your car run out of gas on the Auckland Harbour Bridge?
Did your car run out of gas on the Inter-Islander Ferry?
Like the worst place that it could run out of gas
or just like miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
away from a petrol station?
In the middle of like a crash car derby.
Oh, okay.
That'd be a bad place.
A bad place to run out of gas.
Can you imagine?
Horrible place to run out.
In a demolition derby.
Yeah, demolition derby.
Horrible place to run out. Sitting duck. Yeah, can. Yeah, demolition derby. Horrible place to run out.
Sitting duck.
Yeah, can you imagine?
0800 ZM would text 9696.
Where was it?
Conked out of gas.
Your car spluttered to a stop.
And you didn't have any alternative but to sit there and get someone else to sort you out.
You can text us on 9696.
We'd love to hear about it.
Terrifying experience yesterday.
I went down to 5km left on my fuel tank before I got to a petrol station.
Do you reckon they're going to make a documentary about it?
I hope so.
Who will play me in the documentary?
Oh, I mean, probably Ricky Gervais.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Someone, someone.
Wait.
Oh.
That's what you said.
People say that you look like him, don't they?
Yeah.
Well, yeah. well, anyway.
Well, who would you want?
Probably Brad Pitt.
You said that if you get that fuel light come on and it says zero k's,
you've got about 50 k's left.
I reckon, give or take.
Here's a text.
Someone says, you do have 50 k's.
I'm a mechanic and roadside rescue technician.
You have 50 k's from when you get to zero.
I knew it.
Don't tell people that because now they're going to go to zero
and they'll be like, oh, I'm sweet.
I'm sweet.
That's good to know.
I've got 50 Ks to go.
Because then it saves a whole lot of stress.
We're asking where did you run out of gas?
And Krista's called up.
Hi, Krista.
Hi, Krista.
Hi, how are you going?
We're good.
Where did you run out?
In the middle of a roundabout.
Oh, no.
While you're going around it.
Yeah, so I had pulled up, you know, you give way before you enter the roundabout.
And I put my foot down to go into the roundabout.
And I got halfway into the roundabout.
And my car just stopped.
Just went...
And just stopped.
And I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
And I was literally like in my car. And you know how when it's starting to slow down, and you're kind of like trying to push it forward. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And I was literally like in my car.
And you know how when it's starting to slow down and you're kind of like trying to push it forward.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm doing that in the seat trying to get it to move forward.
You're like shoving the steering wheel to make it go further forward.
Like just a little bit more.
And it was not going anywhere.
So I was so embarrassed.
I had to put my hazards on and jump out.
And sit there.
And everyone was tooting at me and driving around me.
And I'm trying to move the car by myself.
And finally, after about 15 minutes of struggling,
someone finally stopped and helped me.
Oh, people suck.
Are you telling me people just sat there and watched you?
Yeah, they were driving around me, tooting at me.
Someone yelled at me.
And I'm like, I'm sorry.
I can't help it.
I'm sorry. Oh, Chris, that sucks.
People suck. Denise is here. Hi, Denise.
Hi, Denise.
Hi, how are you doing? We're good. Where did you run out of gas,
Denise?
On the motorway, just where
you're coming up to Khyber Pass and there's
the bridge part over the
St. Peter's School and all that and there's
nowhere to pull over.
Yes, yes, yes.
It's really busy.
Yeah.
Dangerous.
So I ran out and just sat there and was just like...
You could have ended up on motorway patrol.
Well, they didn't have it back then, but...
Oh, okay.
Denise, were you...
...and my little orange mini?
Were you riding the lightning and thought, oh, it'll be fine, I'll get petrol eventually?
Or did you just genuinely forget to get gas?
My fuel odometer or whatever it is,
my fuel gauge didn't work.
Oh, a likely excuse to this.
A likely excuse.
Not your fault.
Someone said my husband ran out in the Lyttelton Tunnel
and the police had to shunt him out with their cars.
What does that mean?
They had to like push his car with their car out of the tunnel.
Does that happen?
I ran out of gas on a bridge after I picked my brother up from school
and he had to push it off and his school bus was right behind us
and his classmates all watched us push the car.
Embarrassing.
You would have got bullied for that at school
because kids love to bully you for anything. Oh, yeah. You would have been like, oh, you're the run. Embarrassing. You would have got bullied for that at school because kids love to bully
you for anything. You would have been like, oh,
you're the run out of gas kid.
You're the guy who had to run out of gas. And then they would have come up
with a nickname that would have stuck with you
forever. Brendan's
here. Hi, Brendan. Hi, Brendan.
Hey, team. How's it going? Good, mate. Where'd you run out of
petrol?
So I travel the same route every single day.
I was riding the Lightning
and I just happened to run
into Roadworks Stop Go
on a large hill. Oh yeah, on a hill?
On a hill.
So as I was creeping up
the hill for probably 40 minutes, my
car decided to run itself
out of fuel. Oh, because all the petrol
would have gone to the back of the tank while you were pointing
your car up the hill.
Yep, with everyone bumping and bumping behind me
so I couldn't roll back and pull over or anything.
Did you just...
Very, very choice words. Yeah, I'll say.
They're already angry because they're in roadworks.
Did you just die of embarrassment?
Yeah, pretty much, yeah.
Oh, you poor thing.
I got out and sort of just waved at everyone
with the hazard lights on. Yeah, nothing you can do about it.
Ah, well, happiness to the best of us, I guess, doesn't it?
Yep.
It really, well, yeah.
I mean, I feel like a lot of people have probably,
Matty McLean literally went through this,
I think like a couple of months ago.
Did he?
Actually ran out, had to run up to the petrol station,
get a jerry can, run back down to his car.
He's a grown ass man.
I know.
He's a journalist.
I think he did.
If it can happen to a journalist, it can happen to anyone.
I think since leaving TV, like he used to have a driver when he was working at TV.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so he used to have a chauffeur.
He's not used to driving himself around.
And then he didn't realise when he came over to radio that he has to drive himself.
So he's only just recently got his licence.
Oh, it's a steep learning curve.
Yeah.
Bree and Clint.
Let's play Google Down.
Do you feel lucky?
Well, do you?
It's time for Bree and Clint's Google Down.
Punk.
Here we are.
Google Down again for another week.
Fastest Googler in the West will take home the win
and the KFC chicken dollars for the person who has backed them in for the win.
Piyo, piyo.
Clint, Claudia and Ella will be your players.
Here are the rules.
I've put these questions into Google.
I'm looking for the first person to yell out the correct answer.
If that's you, I'll give you a point.
First to three points will take the
game. Let's do this thing.
Here we go, guys. Question number one.
What year did the
original Wicked musical
first come out?
2003.
Was that a guess? Nope.
That was quick. Are you cheating?
No. You can see where I've typed it.
I've only typed in what year did Wicked come out.
Okay, good work.
Mm-hmm.
2003.
Feels good to do it normally, properly, doesn't it?
Is that your first real point?
An honest man.
I deserve these.
That's fine.
Shade from the other competitors.
One to Clint.
Here comes question number two.
How many Pirates of the Caribbean movies are there?
Five.
Six.
Claudia.
I made that up.
I'm going to give it to Claudia because six is currently in the works.
It's not out yet.
It doesn't count.
Yeah, I agree.
It is currently in production.
And Google says five.
Five and a half.
I just said six because she'd already said it,
so I thought I'd just get a guess on there just in case she was wrong.
Fair.
Yeah, I made that up.
If you had said six first, I would have been on the fence.
But, Claudia, you will receive the point.
Thank you.
One to Claudia.
Question number three.
Who invented Google?
Looking for two names.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
Shame.
Far out.
Carry on.
Carry on, carry on, carry on.
Have you been drinking again during the week?
I wish.
Did you forget?
I wish that I'd have an excuse.
Did you forget where you were?
I got frustrated because I saw it and I couldn't get past the Brin bit.
Far out, guys.
Who votes I take a point off him?
No.
Absolutely.
Take him a point.
Just stop talking about it.
If it happens again, it'll be a deduction of bet.
No one heard it.
Let's distract everyone.
Two to court.
Hey, look, there's a donkey.
One to Clint.
God, how did the donkey get in here?
Stop.
Breeze over it.
You guys just suck at breezing over it.
It's a donkey in the studio.
We can replay just to check.
Claude, that'd be good.
Two to Claude, one to Clint.
I'm going to say it again at this rate.
He's lucky to keep the point after dropping the earth bomb.
Question number four.
Who invented the wristwatch?
What? Abraham Lewis. I have no idea. question number four who invented the wristwatch what oh
Abraham Lewis
I have no idea
I thought you were
going to say
Abraham Lincoln
Abraham Lewis
Bregu
was the man
who invented
the wristwatch
I was still
distracted by the donkey
yeah I put that donkey
there to distract you
two to Clint
question number five
how many players in a full NFL squad Yeah, put that donkey there to distract you. Two to Claude. Question number five.
How many players in a full NFL squad?
How many?
1,696.
Oh, that's the whole answer.
What was that, Claude?
53.
53 is correct.
Oh!
Damn it.
Whoa!
53 on the roster.
It says on Google for a full NFL squad.
Because I'm a New Zealander who watches the Warriors,
my phone just auto-corrects to NRL, not NFL,
and it just kept changing back to it.
If you spell everything else wrong, it can't auto-correct that.
It's working too hard on other things, and then you get 53.
There you go. That's a hack from Claudia and that is the win. Well done
Claude, which means Sarah,
you backed in Claudia for the win.
So you've won 50 KFC
chicken dollars. Nice work.
Thank you so much. Well done, Claudia.
Thanks, Sarah. And you didn't hear any bad words, did you,
Sarah? None at all.
And how about that donkey?
We're just hacking out with our donkey.
Our donkey Steve.
Are we going to talk about the fact that Ella thought there were
a thousand people on an NFL team?
No, that turns out that's the whole entirety
of the NFL. Oh, right.
In case you were wondering. Well, she's kind of right.
You're welcome.
Palmerston North police
have busted a criminal
pot plant stealing ring.
This is real news.
We just need to clarify at the top here.
It's a pot plant, not a pot pot plant.
Yeah, it's not pot in a pot plant.
It's not pot in a pot.
That would make more sense.
Yeah.
Would it?
If there was a pot pot plant thief.
Nah, I feel like you're sullying the good name of pot plants.
Pot plants are what your nana has.
It's what your mum has.
Yeah, but I don't want to steal them.
Popplants make your dick feel homely.
You know, popplants.
Yeah, but there's nothing enticing me to go,
oh, I'm going to become a popplant thief.
Well, anyway, there is one or two in Palmerston North,
and the police have got them.
This is not a word of a lie.
But they've booked them.
Operation Hot Pot caught two men,
aged 38 and 40 respectively,
who were responsible for over 18 pot plant heists
in Palmerston North.
18 pot plants.
Well, they stole 18 pot plants.
Well, they committed 18 pot plant thefts.
I imagine if you're going to someone's house
that has a lot of pot plants,
you're taking them all.
But it's 18 individual, like, occasions.
Incidences.
Incidences, yeah.
Like, if you're a pot plant thief, you're filling the uke bed, aren't you?
With as many pot plants as you can find.
I just don't understand why they chose pot plants as their thing to steal.
There must be a market for them.
There must be a market for them.
They're quite heavy, though, when they're full.
Yeah, definitely.
That's why it's a two-man operation.
And you can break them.
Police in Palmerston North have had to defend Operation Hot Pot
to people who say hunting down pot plant criminals
is not a good use of police resources.
I mean, it probably is.
They're like, what about the ram raids? Fish to fry. And they're like, no, no, pot plants. is bigger fish to fry.
No, no, pot plants.
Bigger pots to smoke.
Police say that it was a short, sharp operation
and people who have had their pot plants burgled
deserve to have their property back,
even if it's just a pot plant.
They're like, it's just a pot plant to you,
but to some people, this is memories.
Just a pot plant.
No, they're like, this is, you know, it might have been given to them by their grandma.
Do people pass down pot plants?
Yeah.
Yeah, I've inherited a couple of pot plants.
The lady we bought our house off of left all of her pot plants.
Yeah, it's good.
Every single one.
Yeah.
We threw out most of them.
What?
Jeez.
Silly you.
Now you're hearing this news, eh?
Oh, well, most of them were-
Bet you feel silly.
Most of them were plastic
Oh no, no, no, no, no
We're not doing plastic pot plants
No, but that's the rage these days
It's plastic, but it looks like a
Oh, it looks like stone
Yeah
Oh, I'm into that
Yeah, well then you can actually move it
The problem for the Palmerston North pot plant police though
Is now they have a whole lot of pot plants to take care of
Until they can figure out who they belong to To lot of pot plants to take care of until they can figure out
who they belong to
to get the pot plants
back to their rightful owners.
Do the people have to come in
and identify their pot plants?
Yeah, how do you do that?
But then how do you know?
And which police officer
is responsible
for watering the pot plants?
Yes, that's my succulent.
I know my succulent anywhere
and that is definitely
my lemon tree.
I know my lemon tree in the lineup.
Show us a photo of you with that lemon tree if you want it back.
Because you've got to designate a pot plant waterer.
If you don't, every police officer on each shift is going to come in
and go, oh, the pot plants need some water.
Before you know it, over-watered pot plants.
That is a real issue.
Operation Hot Pot becomes Operation Wet Pot, you know?
Yeah, you don't want wet pot. Yeah, you don't want wet pot.
No, you don't want wet pot.
It's ruined.
No one likes a soggy pot.
It's ruined once it gets wet.
It's got to be dry.
It's got to be dry pot.
It's got to be dry.
Wait, are we still talking about pot plant?
Yep.
Okay.
Brian Clint with your hot pot plant news.
Brian Clint.
A recent inquiry over in Aussie has revealed some data that showed an increase in women
taking up a skilled trade as a lifelong profession. How good? Yeah, that's really cool, eh? So they
found that this particular inquiry found that 30.9% of all apprentices in Australia at the moment are
women. 30% of all tradie apprentices are women?
Apprentices, yeah.
That's awesome.
Isn't that cool?
Some other numbers that came out of it were that 1.6% of all apprentice plumbers were women.
Only 1.6?
That's plumbers.
Yeah.
5.2% of electrician apprentices were women.
And 2.5% of apprentice bricklayers and carpenters were women.
I feel like you've got to be a different breed to want to be a plumber
because you've got to deal with, you know, toilet stuff.
It's a lot of like digging trenches and laying pipes.
It's a lot of that.
A lot of crawling around underneath houses and tight spaces like that.
So is being an electrician.
But at the end of the day, you're still going to have
to unblock a few toilets, you know?
But I think they get paid well for it.
I think plumbers are one of the highest
paid trades. I've just done a quick
Google, and sorry if you've got this information
too, but do you know what percentage of
people in trades in New Zealand
are women? How many? Only
3%. Yeah, that's not
very high, is it? 3%.
I wonder how, did you say
in trades or apprentices? In trades.
I wonder how many are apprentices.
Yeah, if it's going up. Yeah.
Because that's what this kind of study's saying
that the apprentice rate is going up for women.
You would feel like the odd one out
on the building site, whether the people
that you worked with made you feel that way or not.
There'd be a bit of,
until you got used to it, you know?
It'd be like that in, yeah, certain jobs and careers
that generally are dominated by one gender
and if you come in as the other, it would be difficult
no matter what profession it was.
Like, did they even have a toilet for you?
Like, your own toilet?
Well, they should.
They should?
I feel like most...
But do they?
I feel like most places surely have, like, two types of toilets.
Well, and, like, building sites and stuff, they only put one port-a-loo in, so...
Well, port-a-loos are gross, too.
They are gross at the best of times, let alone when there's seven other tradies using it
at the same time as you.
And you're like, hmm, reckon we could get a women's port-a-loo?
Or maybe you just don't worry about that. You go, no, hmm, reckon we could get a woman's port-a-loo? Or maybe you just don't worry about that.
You go, no, no, port-a-loo's a port-a-loo.
I'd like to talk to some people who feel like that is them.
In whatever job that you do, you feel like you're kind of the odd one out, so to speak.
Yeah.
Like most people, you know, that work in your job are women or most people that work in
your job are men and you're the other?
I've got a male friend who was in early childcare.
His family had an early childcare business
and he was by far the only one that he knew in that profession.
Not teaching in early childcare,
like preschool, daycare.
Babies.
Yeah.
It's just not a profession where you find very many men
in that situation.
What other type of professions do you feel like fit into this category?
I feel like back in the day you might have said hairdressing,
but I think that's changed.
Well, it depends.
I feel like hairdressing and then you've got barbers.
Oh, barbering.
Are you going to put that under the same umbrella?
Because I feel like it's different.
Yeah.
No.
Yeah, true.
Because hairdressing to me, like if you're doing, you know, colours, blow dry, like all
of that stuff, whereas like a barber, I'm picturing you're doing the shaves and the,
you know, the short haircuts and stuff.
There's definitely more women in this profession now, but I reckon for a long time, like butchers,
anybody who works.
Oh, yeah.
That'd be unusual.
Female butchers. It would have been. Maybe it's different now. I don't know. Oh yeah that'd be unusual. Female butchers.
It would have been. Maybe it's different now. I don't
know. I don't know. Yeah.
We want to know the profession you're
in and are you the odd one out?
Yeah do you stand out? For whatever reason. Yeah which way
which way around is it for you? You're kind of like
the only one of you or one of the
only ones of you where you work.
Can you tell us about it? 0800 DARS at M
or you can text us on 9696
and we'll get your story on next.
Someone said I work for a social service.
Fully staffed. We have about 50.
There are only three men
across the organisation. Which social
service? You can text us. We won't tell
anyone. Interesting.
Are you a bit of
a lone wolf? The odd one out
in your job or your profession?
Or a diamond in the rough.
Do you like to refer to yourself as a diamond in the rough?
Rose amongst the thorns, maybe.
There's new stats out at the moment saying that there's a lot more female apprentices doing trades.
Yeah.
Starting a trade and hopefully going into the industry soon.
Bree said in Australia, 30% of all apprentices are female now.
That's what this-
That's a huge change.
Yeah.
That's what this particular inquiry said.
You know why it'll be?
It'll be because of all those TikToks that people are doing in Aussie
where they go and ask people what they do for a job
and how much they earn.
If you send them on the street and they're like,
oh, I'm an electrician and I made 120
grand last year.
Yeah, you can make good money in trades.
Yeah.
Very good money.
So we want to know, are you the odd one out at your workplace and what do you do?
Hi, Kendall.
Hi, Kendall.
Hi.
What do you do for a job, Kendall?
So I don't work in the job anymore, but I used to work at my local dump shop, like my local tip.
Oh, yeah.
Like where people come and you kind of weigh the cars on the way out and say, this is how much I was.
So more like actually where they throw the rubbish, we would kind of, you know, have to stand back and make sure we didn't.
Yeah, we didn't get.
Yeah, kind of.
We sorted out what was good from what was rubbish.
I love the dump shop.
I love the dump shop. Yeah love the dump shop, yeah.
How many employees and how many men, how many women?
Well, there was probably maybe like a team of 20 to 30 total,
but working like in what they would call the pit,
I was the only girl.
Damn.
And it was probably about, it was the same amount of nails.
And when it came to, like,
getting anything else,
a lot of it,
maybe dirty or heavy,
people would be like,
oh, no, it's okay.
I'll get one of the guys to help.
And were you like,
nah, I want to get in there
and pull my weight.
I'm knee deep
in someone else's crud.
Good on you, Kendall.
Nice work.
The only girl on the pit.
Someone texted in and said,
I'm a meat inspector on a beef slaughter floor.
There's four girls among about 50 males in here.
Yeah, that definitely wouldn't have a lot of females working.
It's not an incredibly appealing job to me
to be a meat inspector on a slaughter floor.
The abattoir.
If it's what you're good at.
Have you ever driven past an abattoir?
Yes, stinks.
Not the best.
The freezing works.
Someone else texted her and said,
I'm a female apprentice mechanic,
and I was very nervous going into the trade
as it's very male-dominated,
but the workshop I work at is very supportive,
and I don't feel out of place at all.
I even have my own bathroom.
Love it.
That's good.
Nice to hear.
Kerry's here.
Hi, Kerry.
Hi, Kerry.
Hiya.
Tell us, what do you do for work, Kerry?
Okay, so I'm a digger machine operator on a roading crew.
Amazing.
That's cool.
How'd you get into that?
So I kind of dropped out of high school, got my licenses, and kind of went through from there.
Yeah.
I was an apprentice and started as an apprentice,
but, yeah, I wanted a little bit more.
What licences do you have?
How many do you got, the excavators, and what big licences?
So I've got forklifts and wheel tracks and rollers.
Oh, nice.
And you do roadworks and stuff is that right?
You're out there
working on the roads.
Yeah.
How's your mana wave?
Yeah it's getting better.
Yeah it would have
to be at the moment
wouldn't it?
And you're one of the
only girls out there
doing that in your crew
is that right Kerry?
Yes we've got a crew
of 20 and I'm the
only girl.
Yeah amazing.
And they're treating
you good Kerry?
Uh
50-50.
It depends where what site I'm on and who's my supervisor.
There's some supervisors that will try and give me easier work.
Yeah, right, okay, interesting.
It'll feel good when the ones that are condescending, though,
that you rank higher than and you're like, cool,
you keep turning that sign,
I'm going to go and drive that massive digger over there, okay?
Yeah, because I've got my licence.
Pretty much.
Pretty much.
Thanks, Kerry.
A few more people texting through.
Someone said, a female engineer here.
Only female engineer in my company at the moment.
There's about 20 of us.
My brother is an engineer, and I remember when we lived together,
he came home one day, and he'd been working at this engineering firm
for a couple of years, like two years maybe.
And I said, oh, how was your day?
And he goes, oh, how was your day?
And he goes, oh, so good.
New person at work started and it's a girl.
He was very excited about it.
All those nerds would have been like, oh, hi.
He's like, and she's real pretty.
Can I show you my protractor?
Someone else texted through and said,
my partner is a female helicopter mechanic apprentice.
That's sick.
That's awesome.
That's so good.
Finally, Tilly's here.
Hi, Tilly.
Hi, Tilly.
Hi there.
You one of the only ones of you where you work?
What do you do?
Well, actually a bit of the opposite.
So I'm a social worker and it's predominantly female oriented.
Okay.
Yeah, but we are always needing more men in the role. So just going to put the all call out there.
If you're a man considering social work, please join the force.
Tilly, why do you think it's so female dominated?
I think that it's like it kind of falls in line with like nursing and some other caring professions,
which are sort of typically thought of as a female's role.
But I think it's time that we start seeing the value of men being in those spaces.
Yeah, totally.
Totally.
Yeah, especially working with youth.
It's really great to have more guys in that space.
Yeah, because some people relate, you know, more to a female energy
and some relate way more to a male energy, I'd imagine.
Totally.
And sometimes there's even within organizations restrictions
where men can only work with other men because of safety concerns.
Really?
Yeah, right, I see.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
So it ends up being really quite unfair that some people aren't getting the service that they need
because there aren't enough men in the sector.
Totally.
Fascinating.
Hey, thanks for sharing, Tilly.
That's a really good insight that we weren't expecting.
Yeah, thank you.
There you go.
One more.
Someone said, I'm a motorcycle mechanic
and I'm the only female in my workshop.
That is so cool.
That is very cool.
Yeah.
Bree and Clint.
Bree and Clint.
All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger.
All right, let's do your birthday bangers for your hump day.
Number one song is when you turn 16.
Let's go to Anna, who's doing their mum's birthday banger.
Hi, Anna.
Hi, Anna.
Hi.
How old are you?
I'm actually nine.
You're nine, so you can't do your birthday banger yet.
Is it Anna or Anna? Anna. Anna. Anna. Anna. Sorry, Anna. Sorry about that, so you can't do your birthday banger yet. Is it Anna or Anna?
Anna.
Anna.
Sorry, Anna.
Sorry about that, mate.
It's okay.
But we can do your mum's birthday banger.
All we need is your mum's birthday.
9th of July, 1980.
All right, Anna.
That means your mum was 16 in 1996.
And here's her birthday banger.
One time, one time. in 1996. And here's her birthday banger.
One time, one time.
The song that the kid on,
is it Billy Elliot?
Sing About A Boy.
About A Boy.
What do you think, Anna?
Do you reckon mum likes the Fugees?
Yeah, mum told me,
said that she likes the songs.
Oh, yay.
Well, we're stoked for your mum.
Good result.
There's still a birthday banger for Phil.
G'day, Phil.
Hi, Phil.
Hello, hello.
I heard it's your birthday today, mate.
Yeah, it definitely is.
Happy birthday, mate.
Good to talk to you.
Have you had a good birthday so far?
Yeah, not too bad.
Mostly driving for work.
Are you on your way home? Just parked up at home. Oh, perfect. Okay, well, let's get you home. We'll do this first. What's
your DOB? 19th of June, 1993. All right, 93 is the year, which means you were 16 in 2009.
And on that day, this was number one.
It's a banger from La Rue and Bulletproof.
Do you like it, Phil?
It's all right.
Was it your first pick, was it, Phil?
No.
No.
Fair enough.
It's okay.
It's all right.
Let's do one more birthday banger for Troy.
Kia ora, Troy. Hi, Troy. Kia ora, Troy.
Hi, Troy.
Kia ora, bro.
How are you?
We're good.
What have you been up to today, Troy?
I just finished rugby training.
Oh, yeah?
Nice.
Just work and rugby training, yeah.
Let's see you guys on the way home.
You got early rugby training to be finished by 5.30?
Oh, just the kids.
I train under sixes.
Oh, okay.
I see. Cute.
When you're under six, do you have to wear headgear? If they want to, they can. Oh, cute. When you're under six, do you have to wear headgear?
If they want to, they can, but not really,
because it's just Ripper rugby, so they just grab the tags.
Oh, right, gotcha.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Of course they would.
Hey, Troy, what's your birthday, mate?
The 7th of August, 1988.
All right, that means you were 16 in 2004.
And back on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
I've been watching.
I've been waiting.
What a banger.
The rat's moth.
What a banger.
That's a bit of an out there one.
I haven't heard this in ages, Troy.
Yeah, it's a good one.
It's a goodie, Troy.
This was on a TV show.
Yes, it was.
What show? Was it... Oh, it was. What show?
Was it...
Oh, it was too.
Was it Grey's Anatomy?
No, I don't think it was Grey's Anatomy.
I feel like it was the theme to a TV show.
I think it was too.
Yeah.
If anyone knows what that is, can you text us on 9696?
Hey, Troy, I think yours have got the best vibes
and because you like it as well,
I'm going to vote for your song to win Birthday Banger today.
Troy, I've got your back mate.
That's the one I'm voting for.
Let's do it Troy.
There you go mate. You're the winner.
From the year
2004, this is The Rasmus
and In The Shadows
on Birthday Banger on ZM.
Bree and Clint ZM Bree and Clint
The winner of Birthday Banger is The Rasmus
It's In The Shadows
We've been trying to figure out where the TV show that that was from
Someone texted and said it was Charmed
I feel like Charmed came out before
Wait, before 2004 What was Charmed. I feel like Charmed came out before. Wait, before 2004?
What was Charmed's opening theme song?
I feel like it was quite creepy.
Someone else texted and said that it was Smallville,
and that rings a real bell.
The TV show about a young Clark Kent.
That's what Smallville was, wasn't it?
Yeah.
I've just found the theme song to Smallville.
Is this ringing any bells for anybody?
Nah, not me.
What about Charmed?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I remember this as Smallville now.
It was always on TV too on like a Sunday, Smallville.
Yeah, I never really watched it.
I remember that guy's beautiful blue eyes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And the young, bald Lex Luthor.
Google says that the Charmed theme song Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the young, bald Lex Luthor.
Google says that the Charmed theme song was a cover of the Smiths' 1985 song called How Soon Is Now.
Oh, yeah, OK.
Charmed's retro.
Big throwback.
Who was the main actor on Charmed?
Oh, they were all big stars.
One of them was in New Zealand, like, not that long ago,
a couple of weeks ago.
The big characters on Charmed were Piper, Prue, and Phoebe, and Paige.
And they were witches, eh?
They were all witches, yeah.
There'll be a whole channel on the Samsung TV
dedicated to just episodes of Charmed, I reckon.
You're probably thinking of Alyssa Milano.
Yes, that's something I've, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Bree and Clint.
Yesterday, and by having lunch with her,
I mean we were eating beside each other
and she was on TikTok.
She was watching her TikTok.
But she had the volume on.
Ah, true love.
Modern love, right?
She had the volume up
and it was sort of propped up against a glass of water
so I could see and hear everything that she was scrolling through on TikTok.
And it was a weird experience because I said to her,
hey, are you on like a specific hashtag or like a specific type of TikTok at the moment?
Or is this just what your main feed is?
She says, no, no, this is my TikTok.
This is my main For You page.
A lot of tarot cards.
A lot of Hollywood medium Tyler Watts' face.
Oh, yes.
A lot of subscription services to people who will predict your future
and stuff like that.
Because eventually, once you've been on an app like TikTok for a while,
it curates what it thinks you like and it pushes that into your feed. Correct? And that is my wonderful TikTok for a while. It curates what it thinks you like
and it pushes that into your feed, correct?
And that is my wonderful wife to a T.
Very spiritually interested.
It got me thinking about what a foreign place
someone else's TikTok feed must be though.
And I suggested to you today
that we spend five minutes on each other's page.
I give you my phone, you give me your phone,
and we just spend five minutes scrolling through
and see what it's actually like.
And we did that today.
And I don't know about you, but for me,
it wasn't immediately obvious how different it was
until you start going through and you're like,
oh my God, where's this kind of content?
Or where's that that I've been seeing?
Or why do I keep seeing things about this certain thing?
Yeah.
And if it's someone you know, it does make sense.
So yeah, we've critiqued each other's TikTok.
So we've pulled out some stuff that we have noticed
after going through the other person's TikTok account.
Yeah, and this is a review.
Who would like to go first?
Should we go one for one?
Okay, yeah. Okay. and this is a review. Who would like to go first? Should we go one for one? Okay, yeah.
I can kick it off.
The first thing that I
noticed going through your TikTok
account, so much
rugby.
Rugby, rugby, rugby.
And not just like there was like people
playing rugby, people talking about
rugby. There was like
mostly rugby union, a tiny bit of rugby league,
some NFL, just rugby.
So it was videos like this.
So you eat and park like this.
This is the day that rugby needs.
You know, I said last week, I joked that this is the promoter's dream.
It is the promoter's dream.
That's my TikTok feed.
Absolutely.
Just sport rugby.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, a lot of that.
Fair.
I think that's a fair summation.
Your TikTok feed, what did I notice?
Yes.
A lot of the content, quite gay.
Well, I made you turn gay.
Well, I guess it just started off as a seven-day free trial,
and I must have just forgotten to cancel.
And here we are.
Sounds like gay Catherine Kim.
It does sound like gay Catherine Kim, doesn't it?
A lot of content from the Rainbow community
in Brie's TikTok feed.
Rainbow community
are hilarious.
They make a good TikTok.
Content creators.
Yeah, absolutely.
Very funny stuff.
Something else I noticed
on yours,
so many ads
for this kind of stuff.
In July,
you will thank yourself
for starting calisthenics.
If you can't do 50 pushups,
then you need to do
this 28-day calisthenics workout challenge.
It's full of bodyweight exercises,
which will help you put on strength and lean muscle.
I get those ads all the time.
Do you not get those?
No.
Oh, my God.
I get so many ads for calisthenics.
I get ads for fast food and Kit Kats.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh.
I've never clicked on one of those ads.
I'm not interested in doing calisthenics.
So many ads on your TikTok.
What did I notice on Bree's TikTok feed?
I said it was quite gay.
There's also specifically quite a lot of drag content on your page.
I love drag.
Please welcome Paris Hilton.
Hey, Ru, how's it going?
Just let me know when the cameras are rolling and we'll kill it.
Well, we've started.
The cameras are rolling.
Oh, shit.
That's so embarrassing.
Sorry.
I do love drag. A lot of drag queens, a lot of RuPaul cameras are rolling. Oh, shit. That's so embarrassing. Sorry. I do love drag.
A lot of drag queens, a lot of RuPaul's Drag Race.
It's hilarious.
A lot of drag queens performing on stage.
It's very funny stuff.
Some stuff.
I mean, this, to be honest, wasn't like something that I noticed
came up a lot on your TikTok.
I just found it very funny and it's quite relevant.
But it's this woman doing a skit
about Justin Timberlake
getting pulled over.
Oh.
Licence and registration, please.
It's gonna be my...
I don't know what you're talking...
What are you doing?
Probably.
It's me.
Yeah.
I just found it very funny.
Your TikTok feed,
a lot, a lot of content about um being add
and adhd these are things i know about you if you have adhd i know that your bed is your absolute
favorite place to be so much content about adhd how to stop arguing with your adhd partner in 10
seconds instead of asking them to help you with something now,
ask them to help you with something in 10 minutes.
This would allow your partner time to finish their current activity
and make it sound more like a soft request.
That's good advice, actually.
That's like tips on dealing with an ADD partner.
I'm just trying to learn more about myself and how my brain works.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And after being diagnosed with ADHD,
I feel like some of the stuff really does help.
Something I noticed about yours,
a lot of content around people getting cracked at chiropractors.
Oh, yeah, I love it.
Like ASMR type videos.
Oh, yeah.
Something went...
Something went... they crack the shit out of them and weirdly they never seem better when they leave they're always like thanks so much and they kind of hobble out of there. You didn't get fed. I feel like one of the other main themes on my TikTok feed at the moment
is like cave diving and cave simulations.
No, no cave diving.
And people getting stuck in caves.
No, the other thing that I wrote down that I didn't get any clips of
was eyebrow content.
Oh, yeah.
People just doing brows.
I get entranced by it.
It's so good to watch.
I challenge you tonight, if you have a partner or a flatmate,
just switch phones for five minutes.
You go on their TikTok feed, they go on your TikTok feed,
and you will realise that we are all consuming
completely different content.
We used to watch the same thing on TV every night.
Those days are gone.
We are all off in our own tiny little microcosms
of content and we're just
going further and further and further down our own
little holes. I just learned a new word.
What's that? Microcosm.
Learned that from TikTok. Did you?
No, but you could.
Right, I'm off to my own microcosm.
I like it.
Bree and Clint.
You know what I do love?
A cool vending machine.
Do you?
What's a cool vending machine?
You've got your stock standard vending machines
that we've had for bloody trillions of years
since the dinosaurs were here.
Coke.
Coke machines and, like, snacks.
I quite vibe those ones you see at the airport,
like a JB Hi-Fi vending machine where you can get a pair of headphones or like.
Yeah, see, these are the vending machines I'm talking about.
A vending machine that's unique, that's a little bit different.
And useful at an airport that's very useful if you didn't pack your headphones.
Super useful.
Yeah.
Well, there's vending machines that are causing.
You'd hate, sorry, just to interrupt you.
You'd hate to spend like $150 on a pair of vending machine headphones
and then them get stuck halfway.
You know how sometimes things get stuck coming out of the vending machine?
You'd be ropeable.
You'd be ropeable.
I'd be tipping that thing so hard.
Surely they'd be in a box.
Yeah, they would be.
But you know how it can get jammed and like the thing only drops halfway?
Yeah, it's one thing to lose a can of Coke.
That's what I mean.
But it's another thing to lose a can of Coke. That's what I mean. But it's another thing to lose 150-year-old period vans.
There's vending machines that are gaining a lot of traction over in France,
François, which is where the Olympics are going to be very soon.
Yeah.
What type of vending machine, and think unique,
what type of vending machines do you think are gaining traction in France at the moment?
I'm instantly thinking about, because the Olympics, I'm thinking how many people are going to be there,
how many people, how many randy athletes are going to be there.
And I was going to say like a contraception vending machine.
They have those in Italy.
They've been around for ages though.
They've got those ones in the bathrooms in New Zealand where you put your $2 coin in and you get a two pack.
Oh, that's a different, that's not a vending machine.
Isn't it?
It's a dispenser.
That's a dispenser.
Oh, right.
Okay.
But did you see, when I went to Italy last year, it was in Venice and there was a vending
machine, looked exactly like your normal vending machine, but everything in there was either
contraception or adult toys.
Here's a fun idea for the bars.
Make the contraception dispensers free.
Okay?
We're not going to take more than we need
and you're going to save a lot of people a lot of heartache.
Some white people might get overconfident.
Oh, you reckon?
Yeah.
Or might just take three just in case.
Oh, you think three's overconfident?
Just in case.
You take one and you take a backup.
Yeah.
One and a backup.
One and a backup. One and a backup.
One and a backup.
No, it's not a contraception vending machine.
Okay.
In France, at the moment, gaining traction, cheese vending machines.
Oh, can you do cheese in a vending machine?
That's what I thought.
And yeah, you can apparently.
Right.
So it's obviously refrigerated.
Yeah.
And we're not talking just your run-of-the-mill cheddars and edams.
We're talking-
Or a snack.
Yeah, we're talking fancy cheeses.
We're talking your brieze, your camembert, all the fancy France cheeses.
That sounds delicious.
Apparently, they started in lockdown.
Yeah.
Like when you couldn't go into stores
and people still wanted cheese.
So they started testing these kind of cheese vending machines
around village squares and service centres and stuff like that.
Sounds like an elaborate trap for mice to me.
Sounds like you're saying, it's a vending machine
and it's just another way to catch mice and rats ahead of the...
Big rat trap.
Yeah, but you know what they say, you invent a better mousetrap,
God's just going to invent a better mouse.
That's how it works.
Yeah, it just one-up each other constantly.
This got me thinking, I was like,
I wonder what other type of cool, unique vending machines are out in the world.
Do you want to hear some of them?
Yeah.
So there's a live crab vending machine.
Disgusting.
So that's in China.
It sells live fresh crabs.
Chill out, China.
Yeah.
And then there's also a caviar vending machine in LA.
Okay.
Where...
Are those champagne vending machines I've seen at like some fancy events
are pretty cool where you get like a bottle of like Moe out of the vending machine.
But they're more like a gimmick, aren't they?
They're a gimmick, yeah.
I imagine the caviar vending machine is a gimmick too.
It's real.
Yeah, but I reckon it's a gimmick.
You know where it is?
Where?
In Beverly Hills.
Yeah.
So it's the real deal.
Yeah.
And apparently it's like $500 a pop.
No one does vending machines like the Japanese.
They do everything in vending machines.
They do.
And some weird ones too.
And they have machines that can make you an entire pizza, a fresh pizza.
Yeah, I've seen those.
That's what I'd do in Japan.
I would literally just eat from vending machines.
Live off vending machines.
Yeah, and you can.
You can.
And I will one day.
All right.
Let's get a cheese vending machine in downtown Auckland.
Bree and I are hungry.
Bree and Clint.
And that is the end of the Bree and Clint show.
What's the, what you believe is the pinnacle lunch?
I was going to ask you this exact question.
With great minds think alike.
I know what it is.
It's a toasted sandwich.
A toasted sandwich?
It's hot.
It's portable.
It's fast.
I would argue in winter, yes.
Yeah. It's portable It's fast I would argue in winter yes Yeah But in summer
A fresh sandwich
Trumps a toasty
Like I'm talking a real mean sandwich
So we can agree then
That sandwiches are the best lunch
I feel like sandwiches are underrated
So do I
They're so underrated
I've said for a long time that sandwich is my favourite food
And it's because so many people do it wrong.
They don't put the time, the love and care into what a sandwich could be.
It's all about the bread, the sandwich.
You reckon?
Yeah, it's all about the bread and the condiments.
I reckon it's all about the filling.
Oh, the condiments are important.
It's got to be a hate a dry ass sandwich.
You know, here's my sandwich hack.
Any sandwich you make, I mean, if it's savoury,
put burrata cheese on it and you are home and hose.
I don't even know what burrata cheese is.
Oh, you don't?
It's like this cheese that comes in like a ball and you break it open
and it's kind of like real moist inside.
So it provides this like, it's like a moist maker inside the sandwich.
Yeah.
How do you keep the moist maker away from the bread
to stop it going soggy like tomato does?
You put like eight layers of prosciutto and then burrata.
And then processed cheese.
And then cheese.
And then all your lettuces and healthy stuff.
Oh, I'm going home for a sandwich for dinner.
Have a great night, everybody, and we'll catch you back tomorrow.
Bye-bye. night everybody and we'll catch you back tomorrow. Bye bye.
